Tho following is clipped from
that old reliable Democratic Jour

*tom itg Atlanta correspondent:
The gentlemen who are runninr,
J ' n ' Evans gubernatorial cam
paign have, at this early stage of
g«mp. awakened to the pain-
J 1 realization of the fact that
*iu have to go down into
pockets to elect their candi

u th< camp*?gn
fund because he is a big Metho
dist, is reported to have thrown a
bomb among the enthusiastic
spirits in the charge that those
who were working up the Evai s
boom were doing so in tho hope of
reward, and therefore should be
the ones to go down on the con
tribution list‘‘first and most.”
It appears that Mr. Atkinson is
worrying the committee so much
that Mr. Rice is quoted as saying
openly in the meeting that unless
there was money forthcoming at
once for the campaign that Gen.
Evans might just as well go back
ro the pulpit. Mr. Rice was willing
co give his sh’ie and thought tbe
others ought to come up too. It
was at this juncture, that Cel.
Maddox threw in' his snow ball.
He looked at the situation from a
business point of view. Those who
expect profits from Gen, Evans
■•lection should foot the campaign
bills.
Three of tbe young gentlemen
who expect to be solicitor of the
city court were present. They
were very much disappeinted at
Col. Maddox’s view of the situa
i ion, but, finally, it is understood,
that they agreed to come down on
tbe slate.
Then the proposition was made
to assure Gen. Evans a thousand
dollars tor campaign purposes, and
the suggestion took so well that
everybody wondered why they
hadn’t thought of it befeore —
or perhaps they had.
So Gen. Evaus heads the list
with a thousand dollars. The
“apontanous demand” racket has
>.en worked so persistently on
'tie Atlanta public, as well as
elsewhere, that some good Demo
crats who have been asked to help
the Evaus campaign fund alang,
are somewhat surprised, They
thought all the general had to do
whs to consent to run and he
would be clear out of sight in a
jiffy without investing a dallar in
the ordinary cafnpaigu way.
Col. Rice is said to have rallied
the committee up. wh n he was
making his call for funds, by say
ing Col. Atkinson would not carry
fifteen c >unties, if the necessary
amount of money could be raised.

Augusta. Gt,. March 28.- The
Augusta Jobbers have boycotted the
Armour Packing Copany in this city
The trouble caused, the merchants
claim, by the Armeur company gell
ing direct to the country trade cheap

of the Armour Packing Company,
says they have been selling exclusively
to city jobbers, but competition ha 8
been so c’.ose that the Armour com
pany decided that it was better profit
to sell to the country trade than
continue to deal wita the jobbers: So
he has been sent int® the country to
place goods and consequently the
merchants have withdrawn their trade
